Thundercats were near the tail end right before everything died. They have no business being in the final 3.

As others have said; Thundercats was created early, and released sometime in the middle. He-Man and She-Ra were still going (but slowing down). Star Wars was winding up, but TF's and Joe were at their peak. None of the big three (Joe, TF's, He Man) had made their cinema movies when TC came out.

However, MOTU was what kicked off how toys were percieved and the changes that took place within the industry in the early 80's and how toy companies did business. It also led to the toy boom of the 80's.

I would respectfully disagree, and say that Star Wars did all of the above.

Transformers had a base playset, except their base playset could Transform into the largest robot ever and single handed destroy Castle Greyskull and Cat's Lair. Fortress Maximus makes this winner Transformers hands down.

... and then Fortress Maximus would have to go toe-to-toe with the largest playset ever: USS Flagg... I think there's some fight there!
